Best Gifts for Teen Girls (Tweens, too!)
Looking for the hard-to-buy-for teen (or tween) girl? I’ve got you covered with all of the latest, hottest gift ideas for teen girls (and tween, too!)
This is one of the hardest ages to buy for because let’s face it, they’re the ones telling us what’s cool. And so, getting these gifts right gives us major popularity points!
I have a teen daughter (in middle school), so I’ve been introduced to all things “cool” and “not cool.” I’ve gathered some of her top requests and what I’m seeing among her age group and older this year!
I’ve started making a new graphic every year and moving last year’s gift guide to the bottom. So if you don’t see what you’re looking for right away, keep scrolling down!
I update my gift guides each season. Last updated in December 2024! This post contains affiliate links for your convenience. See my full disclosure policy.

Bubble Initial Necklace
Jewelry is a hot item in this teen girl age range. And the monogram styles are still on trend! This bubble intitial necklace will be a sweet, personalized gift for her!
Lip Mask Set
This lip mask brand has been popular for a while, but we still love and use it! I personally use this every night, but this set would be the perfect stocking stuffer to split among several girls. Or wrap it up for one!
Bow Sweater
The bows are everywhere! So, why not on a sweater? This one is beautiful and highly rated. My girls would both love to open it up this Christmas morning!
Flip Top Stanley
Of course, we all use and love our Stanleys! But this pretty antique pink color is so cute! (I also love the Gilded Celadon color.) And the flip top means it won’t spill and can be taken to school!
Bow Ring
As soon as I saw this bow ring, I knew it would be a hot seller! And I was thrilled when my daughter asked for it for Christmas (without me saying a WORD to her). It’s so pretty, it’s already sold out a few times, so snag it if you see it in your size!
Bow Earrings
Might as well go ALL in on this bow trend and get the gold and pave earrings, too! Any teen or tween girl would love them!
Vintage Havana Sneakers
These are popular among young teens for casual, comfortable shoes with dresses and dressed up sneaks with jeans. Theyu come in
Lunch Bag
Allll the girls carrying these Nooner Scout lunch bags to school! They come in the cutest patterns and colors!
Maracuja Lip Gloss
This is a heavy hitter in our home. A comfort blanket lip product that we can’t live without! It’s the perfect hint of color and it’s so moisturizing. My teen loves the “rose” color.
Pleated Tennis Skirt
Another very popular piece of clothing is this Gold Hinge pleated tennis skirt. Pair it with a sweatshirt and Hoka tennis shoes and you’re all set! They come in two different lengths, which is helpful for school wardrobe requirements.
Bow Apple Watch Band
I gave one of these to my daughter last year for Christmas and it’s still a daily favorite! The charms on the side are interchangeable and so cute. Of course I shared the bow charm, but there are many other colors and charms to choose from.
Ice Roller
Shrink the pores and calm the skin with an ice roller! This is a classic gift if she doesn’t have one, yet!
Roller Lash Curling and Lifting Mascara
This cult following mascara has a brush that lifts and covers every single lash! It coats and separates like nothing else on the market.
Weighted Sleep Mask
This sleep mask is on my preteen’s wish list and I imagine it’s a great gift for any girl who needs some rest and relaxation. The weightedness helps calm after a stressful day!
Quilted Mini Travel Bag
I don’t know what all the fuss is about, but these quilted bags (of all sizes) are all the rage. It’s cute and on trend!
Gold Huggie Earrings
Simple and cute! These gold huggie earrings are the perfect nice everyday earring essentials.
Perfume Set
If you girl like perfume and doesn’t have these scents, then you will hit the gift jackpot with this set! My girls LOVE number 40 scent and this one was a must-have because it has the “new scent” … whatever that means! 🤪 Honestly, the fact that this is still in stock shocks me.
Ray Ban Sunglasses
I’m a huge fan of Ray Ban sunglasses, and these are a much younger, gresher version of the ones I own. Heck, I want a pair now! So cute and stylish!
Bluetooth Shower Speaker with Lights
Just for fun! A shower always seems to help with stress and anxiety, so why not blast some tunes with a fun light show? I think this would such a fun gift or stocking stuffer.
Ugg Tazz Platform Slippers
These have been popular for a while, but this lighter color is what’s most popular this year. The platform slipper is cute, but the regular slipper is still good, too. I have the regular ones and LOVE them!

Gift Ideas for Teen & Tween Girls
Elisa Pendant Necklace
Allll the girls are wearing this Kendra Scott necklace and evidently the iridescent drusy color is very popular. I also know all the girls are pairing this with the delicate initial necklace I’ve shared as well!
Lip Mask Set
I love this lip mask. And the holiday set makes it a great deal to try 3 different scents! It’s very luxurious, smells nice and leaves our lips feeling hydrated.
Swiftie Sweatshirt
The hottest concert and movie this year was 1000% Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour. My daughter and her friends even went as different versions of Taylor Swift albums for Halloween. What a perfect way to commemorate this year!
The Stanley Cup
At this point, it feels like I need a closet for all of the Stanley cups, but these keep on being a top pick for girls’ gifts! My girls either want new colors or new sizes this year. The tumbler is leakproof, perfect for on-the-go. I love the 30 oz. quencher for younger kids and myself. And my younger daughter has this 20 oz. duo set on her wish list. Shhhh, she’s getting it! You can’t go wrong with any of them!
Friendship Bracelets
Another popular outcome of our T. Swift era is friendship bracelets! These cute bracelets are such a great quality gift! Or buy her a DIY bracelet kit if she likes to make them for herself and her friends!
Delicate Initial Necklace
Another popular necklace that both of my girls will find in their stockings this year! Lots of girls are pairing it with the Kendra Scott Elisa necklace above!
Fleece Belt Bag
Last year my girls got the original belt bag (formerly known as a fanny pack). But this year, the fleece belt bag is on their list! It’s so cute and perfect for the winter months.
Swiftly Tech Shirt
I know, I know. This much money for a workout shirt? It’s what everyone is wearing, let me just tell you that. BUT also, we have two of them already and they wash and wear great! My daughter wears them all the time!
Stackable Beaded Bracelets
My girls go gaga over a bracelet, and another popular style is this colorful stackable beaded bracelet! They want lots and in every color!
Scalp Massager
Teen girls love a beauty gadget! My daughter recently picked this up in a store and declared, “I need this!” And I thought, “perfect for a stocking stuffer.” So, in the cart it goes!
Gold & Pearl Bracelets
Another set of bracelets, but this time make it fancy! For when the girls want to dress up a bit, but still be in style!
Reusable Under Eye Patches
Every girl loves to be pampered, so give her the gift of some cute under-eye patches that can be reused! My daughters both have these on their list!
Makeup Removal Towels
When girls are learning to wear makeup (and remove it), it’s nice to have some easy-to-use makeup removal towels. These are reusable and will keep your good towels from being ruined by mascara! Ask me how I know. 😉 Honestly, I want these!
Flower Hair Clip
We already know that hair clips are back, but now the flower has the power! These adorable hair accessories are useful and pretty! You can also get an 8-pack for the price of one fancy one. What a great stocking stuffer!
Cosmetic Bags with Patches
The preppy makeup bags with patches have been popular for years, but the originals are pretty pricy. Thankfully there are now less expensive options and my girls are going to love these this Christmas!
Facial Brush
Give the gift of a facial at home! Pair this with some of the other beauty gadgets for a themed gift she will love and enjoy every week to pamper herself.
Apple Watch in Starlight Color
Move over rose gold, it’s time for Starlight to shine! The coveted Apple Watch came out in a new color and she’s all the most desired color: Starlight. Grab one before the light goes out.
UGG Platform Slippers
A variety of UGG boots have made their way to the top of the fashion sense in the past few years. This year it’s the platform slipper! We still wear the regular slippers and ultra mini boots.
I made a whole new gift guide this year, but I’ve kept last year’s gift guide below because it’s still relevant and everything is still in stock! I’m just buying new things this year because I bought most of the others last year!

Quick Dry Organic Bath Robe
Who doesn’t love wearing a soft, quick drying robe while putting on makeup and doing your hair? These colors are so cute and many are on sale!
Align Leggings
The Lululemon leggings that everyone raves about and every girl wears. They can never have too many or too many colors! The other option is the leggings with a pocket!
Scuba Oversized Half-Zip Hoodie
This oversized, half-zip, cropped hoodie has all of the components that the tweens and teens love! It’s a great addition to the leggings for a complete outfit, and if you need a dupe, try this hoodie!
Gold Hoop Earring Set
I have seen gold hoop earrings everywhere I turn. These make a great gift set because there’s almost a new pair for every day of the week! They are 14k gold plated and hypoallergenic, too!
Insulated Tumbler with Lid & Straw
My daughter is particular about what kind of cup she carries. And the word on the street is that these tumblers are popular on Tik Tok. Sounds good to me!
UGG Classic Ultra Mini Boots
UGG are always a good idea – warm, cozy and great for running errands or a casual day with friend. And this ultra mini style is so popular, the style is sold out everywhere in the chestnut color. I’ve bought this knock-off for my daughter and she loves them!
Quay Big Time Sunglasses
A girl can never have too many sunglasses. But these classic, yet modern, simple sunnies are going to be the pair she grabs over and over again!
Belt Bag
THE Belt Bag that you’ve seen all over the place is worn as a cross body bag, not a “fanny pack.” It’s so popular that if you ever see it in stock, GRAB IT! I bought the real thing for my daughter months ago, but I have this dupe and it looks just the same, sans the fancy logo.
Beachwaver Rotating Curling Iron
Just clip the bottom of your hair in the clip and press the button! This curling iron does the work for you by rotating the barrel. Genius!
Faux Fur Hang-A-Round Chair
Teen and tween girls love anything faux fur. And a cozy chair they can curl up in and watch movies or finish a book? Even better! This one comes in two colors and can be folded up easily if you need to move it!
Nail Stickers
I don’t care if you’re a teen, tween, middle ager or Grandma, these nail stickers are so easy to use and stay for a week or more! My girls and I all love them. They would make a fantastic stocking stuffer!
Garden Party Tumbler
I honestly don’t know if these are popular, but they are cute! And I know my tween daughter ALWAYS grabs my cute insulated cups before anything else. So, guess what?! She’s getting some of her own this Christmas!
Ring Light with Tripod
For obvious reasons, all of the girls need a ring light with an included tripod. And this one is so cute! I wouldn’t mind one of these myself. Ha!
Echo Dot with Clock Face
These little Echo dots are the perfect thing for a tween or teen’s room. My girls both use them to play music and as their alarms on school mornings. My tween asks about the weather to know how to dress each day. This new one even has a clock on it!
I hope this helps you shop for the tween and teen girls in your life. I love gift giving and it’s so much fun with you can find the perfect gift for each person!
